Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr. Pfaff literally saved our boy when he was a little tike around 6 to 8 months. He is now fixing to be 15 years old and almost 6 foot tall. He has come a long ways over the years but we are very thankful for this man. He realized how serious our baby was and listened to us when we told and showed him what was going on. We will never forget him!

My Son had a near death asthma attack and had to spend five nights in the hospital. When the pulmonologist came to see s doctor Pfaff, he was very dismissive and didn't really act like he wanted to listen to anything I had to say. Because of this I contacted patient advocacy because I felt like we were being wrongly treated. Because of this and because he didn't like me contacting patient advocacy. His excuse was that he was on call and was rushing through and "he is just mean when he is on call" his exact words..... he has decided to no longer see my son ( through certified letter ) who is only 3 years old and he's also included his whole entire practice in this. We had a follow-up appointment scheduled 6 weeks later and now I have no idea what to do. I'm so beyond words disappointed in how this is handled and I hope that nobody has to experience dr. Phaff again because he was terrible to our family
